Abstract

This article presents the strategy called MundofisioCG to answer the question How do ICT (Information and Communication Technologies) impact the educational process of students in the Outpatient Practice of the Physiotherapy program at Manuela Beltran University - Bogota - Colombia? The experience of students with the pedagogical strategy was considered to show the incidence of ICT. This is non-experimental descriptive quantitative research, an initial dichotomous survey was conducted, then the MundofisioCG pedagogical strategy was applied, and a final Likert-type survey was conducted. Within the MundofisioCG proposal, digital tools were included to create and share content such as: Podcast, Canva Presentation and Wordwall Tool; likewise, platforms for gamification and active learning such as: Maze Games, Kahoot, Educaplay Crossword, Concentrate by Interacty and Quizizz; and applications for simulation and practice such as: Therapeutic Modalities Simulator. The results of the research indicate that 90% of students use the knowledge about outpatient care through the application of the strategy. It is recommended to continue exploring this field of technology to improve academic and pedagogical processes.
